Jordan: Protests against release of Israeli security guard, call for end of peace agreement

Dozens protested today outside of the Israeli Embassy in Jordan after the Jordanian government’s decision to allow the Israeli security guard to return to Israel following the shooting incident. The demonstrators called for the embassy to be closed and for the cancellation of the peace agreement with Israel.

After earlier this week the Israeli security guard involved in the shooting incident within Jordan was returned to Israel, in which two Jordanian citizens were killed, dozens of demonstrators stood in front of the Israeli Embassy in Amman today (Friday) condemning the Jordanian government’s decision to allow the security guard’s return to Israel. “Millions of martyrs march to Jerusalem,” the demonstrators shouted. “Resist, do not surrender.”
